Coriander/Cilantro: Coriandrum sativum

When thinking about what to plant in the garden this summer...I knew that I wanted to have some herbs & spices. So I chose one that would be doubly great. Did you know that the spice coriander has leaves that is cilantro?! I only grew two plants because I wasn't sure how much I'd use, but these two plants produced 1/4 a cup of coriander minus 3 harvests of the cilantro leaves. I think I'll be planting this again next season.
